Accessibility Statement

We have undertaken to use our knowledge and understanding of the ways in which
different people access the Internet, to develop a web site that is clear and
simple for everybody to use.

Validation

We have used
XHTML 1.0
and CSS that conforms to
specification, as laid out by the
W3C because we believe
that usability and accessibility must have a solid foundation.
If anything on this web site does not validate correctly, please contact the
Site Administration,
and not the Plone Team.

We have also endeavoured to achieve AA accessibility as measured against
version 1.0 of the
WCAG.
We are aware however, that a number of the checkpoints of the
WCAG are
subjective — and although we are sure that we have met them squarely,
there may be instances where interpretation may vary.

To visit us, please follow Genopole access indications. Once on Genopole campus 1, iSSB is located on the first floor of Building 6, which is the first building to your left as you cross the pedestrian gate, or to your right as you cross the car gate.

Congratulations to the iGEM-Evry 2018 team that was nominated for the "best composite part" price, and that won a Gold Medal at the final world iGEM jamboree. To follow their work, please visit their wiki.

The annual spring School on advances in Systems and Synthetic Biology (aSSB) becomes an autumn School, on November 18-22, 2019.

iSSB is pleased to announce the creation of the spin-off Synovance, founded by two former iSSB researchers.

The spin-off of iSSBInovactis, founded by two former mSSB students, won the national competition I-Lab 2017 organized each year by the Ministry of Higher Education and Research to encourage the most innovative technologies.

Based on publications in synthetic biology, an independent study (Nov 2015) found that iSSB ranks 3rd lab in Europe and 9th in the world, despite a comparatively small size.
